GPS Performance

It takes a little while to get used to, it was initially confusing. One of the tricks was the yellow lines are automobile lanes, so you can see when you’re running parallel or crossing the car traffic through a tunnel.

Just a note, that sometimes the GPS can be about 20 yards off from your actual location.
